The successful Mechanical System Design Analysis Engineer candidate will support development of subsea mechanical systems including structures, robotic mechanisms, electro-mechanical and hydraulic powered actuation systems. He/she will work closely as a mentee to senior engineers. General instructions will be provided the resultant work will be reviewed for sound technical judgment/overall adequacy. Candidate will support development of highly reliable, lightweight, robust systems that can operate autonomously in the harsh undersea environment. Candidate will support efforts to generate detailed designs and perform detailed structural analysis and communicate the information to the cognizant lead engineer. Candidate will also support integrating and testing the mechanical systems and will resolve issues and provide innovative solutions to challenges in the subsea environment. Candidate will interface primarily with lead mechanical engineer. Candidate will work within Integrated Product Team (IPT) organization. Occasional travel will likely be needed to support testing at the customers test sites.
